If your business is in Connecticut or New York, one of these regulations applies to you.
You just might not know which one β or what it actually requires.
Here's a plain-English breakdown:
π₯ HIPAA β You handle patient health information in any form. Medical practices, billing services, healthcare vendors. Non-compliance fines start at $100 per violation and scale fast.
π¦ GLBA β You're in financial services. Banks, accounting firms, tax preparers, financial advisors. Requires a written information security plan and specific data safeguards.
π½ NYDFS Cybersecurity Regulation β You operate in NY and are regulated by the Department of Financial Services. One of the most aggressive state-level cyber regulations in the country. Annual certification required.
The common thread across all three:
β You must have documented security policies
β You must control who has access to sensitive data
β You must be able to demonstrate what you're doing to protect it
β You must have an incident response plan
Most small businesses in Fairfield County, NYC and Westchester that fall under these frameworks have one of two problems:
β They don't know they're covered
β They know they're covered but haven't documented anything
Both are fixable. Neither is something you want to discover during an audit β or after a breach.
We support clients through HIPAA, GLBA, and NYDFS compliance readiness across CT and NY.
